Local winds are winds that blow over a limited area. Local winds blow between small low and high pressure systems. They are influenced by local geography. Nearness to an ocean, lake, or mountain range can affect local winds.
Examples of local winds include sea breezes, which blow from the sea to the land and keep coastal temperatures more mild, and land breezes, which blow from the land toward the sea, usually at night.

Answer:
Local winds blow between high pressure and low pressure areas. Winds blow up and down slope, on and off land and sea, through deserts or over mountain passes. Some local winds are well known in an area: haboobs in the desert, Santa Ana winds in Southern California, Chinook winds in Colorado
